Wilder A, Palumbi S, Conover D, Therkildsen N
Evol Lett . 2020 Oct; 4(5):430-443. PMID: 33014419
The study of local adaptation in the presence of ongoing gene flow is the study of natural selection in action, revealing the functional genetic diversity most relevant to contemporary pressures....

Therkildsen N, Wilder A, Conover D, Munch S, Baumann H, Palumbi S
Science . 2019 Aug; 365(6452):487-490. PMID: 31371613
Humans cause widespread evolutionary change in nature, but we still know little about the genomic basis of rapid adaptation in the Anthropocene. We tracked genomic changes across all protein-coding genes...

Baumann Z, Mason R, Conover D, Balcom P, Chen C, Buckman K, et al.
Can J Fish Aquat Sci . 2017 Jul; 74(7):1009-1015. PMID: 28701819
Human exposure to the neurotoxic methylmercury (MeHg) occurs primarily via the consumption of marine fish, but the processes underlying large-scale spatial variations in fish MeHg concentrations [MeHg], which influence human...

Lagomarsino I, Conover D
Evolution . 2017 Jun; 47(2):487-494. PMID: 28568738
Models of environmental sex determination (ESD) usually assume that genetic influences on sex are polygenic, but the validity of this (or any other) form of genotype-environment interaction is virtually unknown....

Conover D, Van Voorhees D, Ehtisham A
Evolution . 2017 Jun; 46(6):1722-1730. PMID: 28567769
What happens when a population with environmental sex determination (ESD) experiences a change to an extreme environment that causes a highly unbalanced sex ratio? Theory predicts that frequency-dependent selection would...

Schultz E, Lankford T, Conover D
Oecologia . 2017 May; 133(4):501-509. PMID: 28466162
Compensatory growth is widespread in juvenile animals; it refers to the ability to grow at faster-than-routine rates, following intervals of slow growth due to reduced food supply or temperature. Whether...

Conover D, Present T
Oecologia . 2017 Mar; 83(3):316-324. PMID: 28313001
How do organisms adapt to the differences in temperature and length of the growing season that occur with latitude? Among Atlantic silversides (Menidia menidia) along the east coast of North...

Schultz E, Conover D
Oecologia . 2017 Mar; 119(4):474-483. PMID: 28307705
We experimentally tested the hypothesis that energy reserve depletion varies inversely with size in the fish Menidia menidia, an estuarine fish known to exhibit size-dependent winter mortality. Individuals in two...

Schultz E, Conover D
Oecologia . 2017 Mar; 109(4):516-529. PMID: 28307335
This study focuses on the seasonal accumulation and depletion of somatic energy in the Atlantic silverside (Menidia menidia), an annual estuarine fish. Previous research revealed that northern silversides are subject...
